September 7, 2023 - Cristal Night; 9/6/2023-9/8/2023: Glorious: great fruit intensity, sweetness with enough acidity to keep it all in balance.

July 16, 2023 - Honeyed, aromatic, tropical fruit, pineapple, lychee etc. Mature honey, touch of marzipan and a nice floral element. Long finish. Beautiful.
I was also immensely satisfied to have blind tasted this and identified it as an "Alsatian SGN around 15 years old"..!2 people found this helpful Comment -

October 27, 2018 - 96 or better. While terribly young the fruits aromas and flavors do not disappoint. Z-D makes such lovely SGN wines that it’s hard to pick a favorite vineyard or vintage. This had great acidity and mineral. It reminds me of the 1995 where you can drink much more than you could, even with it carrying such aromas, and sweetness.
I love Clos Jebsal but this is very close. I hope I can find more.1 person found this helpful Comment
